Building the Capacity of Church Leaders on HIV and AIDS

HIV and AIDS Communication and Stigma

Nigeria

97 Church Leaders have been successfully trained and for the first time in the country, a large number of senior pastors were publicly tested for HIV. Media coverage of the event and stories posted online are expected to have tremendous impact. The project has led to the discovery of the need for HIV communication in the Church in Lagos and among its leadership in particular.
